Bound to Morgan, Prince of Hed, by her father's pledge and her own love, Raederle sets out for Erlenstar Mountain in search of the long-absent prince and of her own unusual powers
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
f her father and her own desire, Raederle was pledged to Morgon, Riddle-Master of Hed. But a year had passed since Morgon disappeared on his search for the High One at Erlenstar Mountain, and rumors claimed he was dead.
Raederle set out to learn the truth for herself, though her small gift of magic seemed too slight for the perils she must face. The quest led through strange lands and dangerous adventures. Only her growing powers enabled her at last to reach Erlenstar Mountain. And there she discovered what she could not bear to accept.
Accompanied by Deth, the High One's Harper, she fled. And behind them came a pursuer whose name was Morgon, bent on executing a grim destiny upon Raederle and Deth.
Her only hope lay in summoning the Hosts of the Dead, led by the King whose skull she bore . . .

"Since 1994, McKillip's writing comprised purely standalone novels. Most of her novels feature cover paintings by Kinuko Y. Craft. On writing fantasy, she said, "The tropes of mythology and symbolism are the basics. It's like a notation in music; you can change it in really wacky ways, but the sound is always the same, the sound is always there. As long as we need these symbols, then the stories will be written. But if we destroy the old symbols, then we might just have to come up with new oneswho knows?"Critic Brian Stableford described McKillip as "one of the most accomplished prose stylists in the fantasy genre", while Nicholls and John Clute considered her "perhaps the most impressive author of fantasy story still active"."
